Arguably the best fighter of WW1, the Fokker D. VII was so superior, that the allies explicitly demanded all aircraft of this type to either being handed over or destroyed.

Technically, the "Red Baron" coloring scheme is probably inaccurate as von Richthofen only flew prototypes as he died days before the D. VII was deployed to the Western Front. Though the liveries of other aces are mostly too intricate to do them any justice in this game.

This version of mine has improved flight characteristics as well as design improvements, giving it a more accurate look. As a result, the hight differential between front and rear has grown which in rare cases can lead to damage when the plane is initially dropped on the ground, in that case, just try again. Apart from that, have fun with the iconic aircraft.

    Thanks, I plan on doing the DR. I next. Though the D. VII has always been my favorite ;)

    Pretty damn good! You can easily mod this into a Fokker Dr.I, which people most commonly associate with the Red Baron.
